Original title: Hainan ethnic minority characteristic villages attract tourists from all over the world to enter the village to find a paradise
Hainan Daily reporter Li Mengyao
Relying on different terrains and landforms and the wisdom of ethnic production and life, the Li and Miao people, who live by the mountains and perch by the water, have outlined one after another "small and beautiful, small and fine" ethnic minority characteristic villages.
From the white-walled Dewa of Miao Village, to the poetry of the three schools of Lizhai, to the beautiful changes of Chubao New Village... Over the past 10 years, Hainan has steadily carried out the protection and development of villages with ethnic minority characteristics, and through the implementation of projects such as improving the appearance of villages, protecting folk cultural heritage, and building public cultural infrastructure, not only has national unity and progress resonated with rural revitalization, but also allowed more and more tourists to find tourist destinations that pursue nostalgia and poetic residence.
1, Changjiang Three Sects Village - a grass and a tree Li family affection
Looking up is the bright starry sky, raising a glass is a mountain orchid wine, falling chopsticks are seasonal wild vegetables, and next to the ear is the Li qu minor key of the Li sister-in-law one after another... Although more than half a month has passed, Haikou tourist Xie Jie still can't forget the night he spent in Sanpai Village, Wangxia Township, Changjiang Li Autonomous County, and is looking forward to going again.

After visiting famous mountains and rivers and visiting scenic spots, "going to the countryside" is becoming a new choice for more and more people to travel. "However, many places are limited to 'eating farm meals', 'living in farm houses', and 'doing farm work', which often gives people a sense of uniformity." In Xie Jie's view, Sanpai Village can provide an immersive Li cultural experience, and this is what attracts him the most.
With "one step, one mile, one style, one grass and one wood Li family affection" as the main line, Wang Xiaxiang connected 4 administrative villages and 13 natural villages in the township into a large scenic spot in 2019, and launched the construction of the first phase of the "Lihuali" cultural tourism town project. Located at the gateway location, Sanpai Village took advantage of this opportunity to not only create a number of scenic spots such as colorful terraces and Lihua Market through local framing and local materials, but also took advantage of the opportunity of façade transformation to integrate vivid and vivid pictures of Li family life such as pottery, brocade and rice into wall painting art, creating a "mobile Li cultural museum".
"If you look at the wall painting of the Li girl reading a book, the painting is actually the real life scene of this family." Yang Ronghui, secretary of the Wangxia Township Party Committee, said that in addition to protecting the original ecological environment, the original ecological culture, and the original folk customs and customs, sanpai village has now realized the transformation of the countryside into a stage, the villagers into waiters, the people into actors, the pastoral market, and the specialties into cultural and creative products, and has become one of the popular ecological rural tourism destinations in our province.

2. Qiongzhong Xiangtu Village - Ancient miao village mountain hidden
After floating clouds in the distance and hazy mountains nearby, almost clinging to the cliffs to bypass the mountain beams in the northeast of Diaoluoshan Township in Qiongzhong Li and Miao Autonomous County, the scenery of Xiangtu Village finally stretches out like a landscape painting - hidden in the mountain pass and hanging on the half slope, this remote Miao village, like most villages in the hinterland of Qiongdao Island, is spread according to the mountainous terrain, and the dewa, white walls and green trees are dotted among them, like a sparse and orderly pen and ink.

The reason why it is named "Xiangtu" is said to be because there is a piece of land in the village, and when people step on it, they will make a strange sound. Perhaps it is that there are more people stepping on it, and now this spectacle has long been difficult to see.
Stepping on the bluestone road leading to the village, through the white walls full of trees and vines, and the gray tiles dotted with moss, you will find that the village women you meet wear Miao embroidered turbans, many of which are even full of turbans, belts and leggings, and the local charm of the traditional Miao village can be described as quite strong. When the roar of the ear gradually became clearer, a clear and turbulent stream crossed in front of the eyes, and a yellow kudzu banyan tree on the bank of the river that required about five or six people to hug was like a giant umbrella, and every spring a tree bloomed with vigorous pink flowers, making people can't help but climb over the mountains just to see it.
In recent years, with the deepening of poverty alleviation and rural revitalization, Xiangtu Village has not only opened the door to prosperity by vigorously developing industries such as betel nut, rubber, puzzles and mulberry silkworm breeding, but also made a small reputation in Hainan's donkey circle with picturesque scenery, attracting tourists to frequently climb mountains and camp here.

3. Wuzhishan Chubao Village - Encounter the beauty of the Li ethnic group
Located on the slope of a sunny mountain at the western foot of Wuzhi Mountain, several traditional "dry-column" wooden plank houses are built along the mountain, and the long thatched grass hangs from the roof in the shape of a "human" character, reflecting the trajectory of the evolution of the traditional Houses of the Li people from the "boat-shaped house" to the "golden shaped house" - here is the Chubao Village of Maoyang Town, Wuzhishan City, known as the "First Village of the Li Family", which has the most complete preservation of the traditional Li residential group in China, which was included in the list of intangible cultural heritage protection in Hainan Province in 2005.
On the one hand, it condenses the valuable scientific research value of the life and cultural change of the Li people, but on the other hand, the thatched house is no longer suitable for modern life, and the villagers are eager to live in tile houses or bungalows, how to balance the contradiction between cultural heritage protection and the development of ethnic minority areas?
Since 2010, Wuzhishan City has combined the key village project of relocating and transforming the whole village of thatched houses in Chubao Village with the planning of Maoyang Town's style town, the construction of new rural areas, the construction of civilized ecological villages, the construction of rural infrastructure and the protection of intangible cultural heritage, retaining the original appearance of the old village, allowing 76 Li compatriots to move into a two-story reinforced concrete small building group 1 kilometer away, fulfilling the "dream of living in peace" for generations.
Nowadays, tourists visiting Chubao Old Village are endless, and the villagers of Chubao New Village have also taken advantage of the opportunity to develop folk village tours.

4. Baisha Gaoshi Old Village - Experience the slow life in the countryside
At the foot of Yanzi Mountain, on the banks of the Erxin Reservoir, next to the gaoshi old village of Qifang Town, Baisha Li Autonomous County, there are villas with small li style buildings.
If you flip the calendar forward, you will see another scene of broken tile houses and yellow mud dappled walls in the dark alleys. "Even if anyone has good conditions, they can't drive in if they buy a car." Villager Mai Yongding still remembers that with the establishment of the development concept of "one creek and two banks" around Chamiao Creek in 2016 and the overall construction goal of "Qifang Hot Spring Ancient Town", the beautiful butterfly change of Gaoshi Old Village also began.
New-style residential buildings, cultural squares, road systems, greening, ecological parking lots and other basic supporting facilities have been built, villagers "moved" into a new life, but also relying on the rural spatial environment, and gradually set this set of "Hainan Province five-star beautiful countryside" "Chinese ethnic minority characteristics of the village" and many other honors in one of the Lizhai into a set of tourism vacation, folklore interpretation, agricultural experience, leisure tourism and so on as one of the rural tourism area.
Nowadays, tourists visit, stay in the farmhouse rooms of Gaoshi Old Village to enjoy the slow life in the countryside, and can also stop by the surrounding Arodogan Shared Farm, Wetland Ecological Park, Lakeside Park and Luhu Lake Health Resort, through the one-stop experience of eating, living, traveling, traveling, shopping and entertainment, turning the green waters and green mountains, pastoral scenery and local culture into "memories that can be taken away".
